TokyoQ's weekly news summary offers this tantalizing tidbit:
East Japan
Railways announced it will introduce a system to let people make a
reservation using their cell phone and so pass through the ticket
wicket without a ticket simply by letting their phone be scanned..
(http://202.221.249.1/tokyoq/)
But www.jreast.co.jp, press releases included, doesn't even hint at
such a thing as far as I can see. Any details or pointers?
Cheers,
